Another pass at the Psychic! This version, I hope, is a little more vulnerable. Still taking feedback, and any comments would be greatly appreciated.

The Telepath, now with the slightly more evocative name of The Psychic! Revamped, mechanically completely untested, and in a snazzier format.

Does anyone know where I might get a template for making a proper Skin/playbook format (as opposed to a list of words in a Google doc)?

This is an attempt at a Skin based on the teenage pathology of “privacy means people are hiding something from me that might hurt me” — the Telepath’s propensity for bypassing boundaries and using secrets as weapons is supplemented by their ability to read minds, but they can’t always guarantee that information is accurate, and most of the time, they’re going to choose whatever sounds right over digging deeper into the truth.

The Locust, a teen who makes an identity out of being ostracized and finding (or creating) the “freaks like me,” interpreted through the lens of a teen infected with a horrific disease, a rotting curse or an unknowable parasite that even the mundanes know is Not Right on a subconscious level. (The name “locust” was chosen for the connotations of pestilence and swarming.)

Constructive criticism appreciated.

Posting a first draft of a skin I’m working on, the Exemplar — the basic concept is a YA hero embroiled in a secret war against a forbidden evil, crossbred with a teen whose self-image is very much wrapped up in a conflict between certain ideas.
